      Inconsistent expectations and poorly structured training

      Store manager trainee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent pay and benefits. Stores are closed on most holidays. Lots of work makes the day go by quickly.

      Cons

      DMs are hired straight out of college and often have poor leadership. Most cannot think for themselves or challenge their own leader which makes decisions take much longer than necessary. Expectations vary greatly among DMs which causes inconsistency between stores. Training is poor on all levels. Most employees feel like they don't know how to do their job properly and there is never any time to give additional training to them.

      Great!

      Shift manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits, Great pay. The job itself weeds out coworkers who don't have a strong work ethic. Promotes self-reliance and self-motivation.

      Cons

      Physically demanding. Sometimes long shifts (9+ hours), that are intensified but the amount of physical labor you do on daily basis. If you want to be full time you are essentially "on call" and need to have open availability. No taking classes or requesting certain nights off for your bowling league or whatever. Burnout rate for cashiers is very high. If you respond better to positive reinforcement, this is not the job for you. They only let you know when you are doing something wrong.

      Pros

      Busy work, Always moving. Time goes by fast, Paid Lunch, Over-Time, Nice Salary, No time for Drama, Fast Paced.

      Cons

      If you are looking for a job where you can just skate bye...Then don't come here. Only 3 associates on the majority of the day. you and 2 others will have 3 hours in the morning to receive and stock 26 pallets from dry goods to freezer and walk-in...this is not a con, just a warning that when you clock on...you will not stop moving until your shift is done. you three don't finish the truck, then you will stay after to complete it so the night shift can do their jobs. this is a TEAM environment..If one person can't pull their weight...you will have to make up for it.
